Class Foam::fv::coefficientPhaseChange Description This simple model generates a phase change between two phases calculated from the following expression: \f[ \dot{m}/V = C \alpha \grad \alpha \f] \vartable \dot{m}/V | mass transfer rate per unit volume C | coefficient \alpha | volume fraction of the source phase \endvartable Usage Example usage: \verbatim coefficientPhaseChange { type coefficientPhaseChange; phases (liquid vapour); C [kg/m^2/s] 0.1; } \endverbatim SourceFiles coefficientPhaseChange.C \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #ifndef coefficientPhaseChange_H #define coefficientPhaseChange_H #include "phaseChange.H" // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // namespace Foam { namespace fv { /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ Class coefficientPhaseChange Declaration \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ class coefficientPhaseChange : public phaseChange { private: // Private Data //- Phase change coefficient.
